“I smoked fake carts and almost died now I am a pawn for big tobacco companies”
Facts 😂
#realshit
THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS.
Lmao 😂
That’s why I only use tanks that you refill yourself
Why doesn’t she just say she was vaping fake carts...
Cuz it's not just fake carts lol its fake pods too
The carts were real its because she over did it.
Her plug told her the shit was real and exclusive
Christopher Mancheno damn bro you did her dirty there 😂
Elijah Muniz what’ve u on no it’s fake carts and it’s just normal pods
There is no way that someone with access to social media and Google didn’t know that it was bad for her. It’s called denial. She knew it was bad for her otherwise she wouldn’t have hid it from her mom.
Ik a lot of ppl always come up with excuses as to why they do it like "stress" etc like that's gonna fix it
For real. She's putting the blame on others, the companys, the cigarette stores. Those are all the reasons why she stopped dancing and started vaping. Hel na
I should have listened to my parents and just never have done it, as someone who vaped like every 2 seconds when I was off work or not doing my traditional endurance workouts. It made my lungs so sore and I became short of breath, It had effected my running big time eventually until I quit. Luckily i think it was that I was already highly active enough with running and fast paced walks, so my lungs weren't damaged to a permanent point, everything went back to normal after I quit. But with 2 experiences I had of not being able to breath sufficiently, was a slight scare the first, but especially second time around by having sore lungs included made that occasion horrifying. Im just happy I realized it and am now vape free, im thankful to have only caused temporary swelling and no scarring, and that I'm completely healthy after the 2 years of vaping the way I did.
She try do make an excuse & playing the victim so we're can felt bad for her knowing that she took that risk herself
Like literally. She blaming the vape companies when she herself said she couldn’t go on 30 minutes without hitting it. I vape but I don’t do it that much tf 😭

After quiting cigarettes (smoked 3 years) ....I started vaping menthol puffs with 5% of nicotine and after 6 months of vaping I started feeling weird light painful discomfort in the lower throat and some impulsive pain on the side of the throat, numbness...so I quit as of yesterday and subconsciously made decision never ever to get back vaping again...I don't want to develop serious disease or any other serious illness and damaging consequences of vaping....not worth it....yet I felt so tired and not energetic after few puffs it's gives you buzz for 5 seconds but after that you feel like shi** and panic attacks are terrible...So I have nothing to loose to give up this bad habit...it's evil and you become slave attached every hour to that little stick which is controls your life, mind, body and soul because it's all together attached...Quit don't wait until it's too late!!!

With someone who has nemaline myopathy, it plays a big part in my lungs. I started using these, within those three months. I told myself to quit, it was hard, sickness for about a week. Thought I was loosing my mind. One month later, I felt myself, somewhat happy and could sort of breath again. Never do j have that ambition to hit it again just to act cool like everyone else
you’re lucky.. i’ve been quit for 11 months and i keep craving it bec it was the only way i felt happiness

I went to the hospital for EVALI, which is basically an acute lung injury that made it extremely hard to breathe and made me keep vomiting. I was vaping both nicotine and THC carts HEAVILY in addition to cigarettes joints blunts etc. every day at 17 years. The lung failure from just the nicotine vape doesn’t seem to be the whole story. In my experience the most detrimental to my health was the marijuana cartridges they are HEAVY and probably what caused this girl to get hospitalized- not just “juuling ”
Especially fake THC carts. A lot of people who start vaping then move to vaping THC carts for example probably don't know what a THC hit is like
Damn bro your story sounds like me rn except for the EVALI, I be smoking a cart at least a week
How are you right now? I hope the best my friend. Did you improve? I am facing this disease too hope you get rid of it.
Tbh bro I feel good yk but I finally stepped my foot down and recognized my addiction. I’m barely 3 days sober off carts and bud in general but Ima see how long it goes for
You'll be fine. Make sure to sleep and eat right and stop everything. Give someone your money or card dude

I'm heavily addicted to vaping. I'm 21. I never thought I'd smoke or drink or vape or anything like that but I did. I guess the stress of life just got to me, but I regret it because now I'm addicted to nicotine.
I even had a seizure at work which was definitely at least partially caused by the vape, but I'm so addicted I still do it.
I don't defend the industry at all and it saddens me too that other people are defending it. Vaping sucks. I hope to quit it but it's EASILY one of the hardest things I've ever done.
Update?
the only stress vaping relieves is the stress of the cravings nicotine created
I started smoking cigarettes in 2012, I gave up in 2022. I am now off cigarettes 1 year and 2 months now. Unfortunately I gave up by vaping.. I’ve gotten to the point where vaping has literally scared me to death and watching videos like this has actually made me realise that I made a bad decision. I quit a bad habit for another bad habit. Yes vaping is less harmful than smoking, but it’s still not safe.
I have been vape free 3 days now.. still early days but I’m determined.
yeah, that's what im hoping bro. i smoke a pack a day plus weed for many years and the tar and carbon monoxide are taking their toll on me. the gum and patch have done nothing for me. it's all about the breathing in and out. i'm hoping that vaping might help and be a step down ( since there's nothing burning )for me. then let the vape go. i know it's all in my head; it's so hard to defeat yourself.

I'm 30 been vapeing for over 10 years healthy as a 🐎
That’s why teenagers and adults shouldn’t smoke and vape so they can live longer and have a happy life
I recently quit vaping after doing it for 4 years. If you have asthma and are sensitive to allergies, it def drys out your throat and irritates your lungs. I would never defend vaping as harmless thing. It’s more of a source of shame, waste of money, and generally just a stupid crutch. Vaping vs smoking being it thc or nicotine, is definitely a safer alternative. The problem is that it’s harder to quit for that reason. You can do it a lot of places that you could never smoke in, it tastes and smells better, and it is way less irritating to my lungs. The problem is that it’s hard to quit because it’s harder to keep track of how much you actually vape. So a pack a day smoke could reduce their cigarettes but a couple every day….a vaper really has no idea. Plus it’s just embarrassing because it looks douchey. There are lots of reasons to quit that don’t involve lying to consumers. People who do it and buy from legit sources already know from experience what the rest of you don’t- there is really no harsh, smoke like aspect to it. Quit because you know your kids are watching. Quit because it’s a waste of money and a source of embarrassment. Quit because you want to be able to use both of your hands and not just the one that’s not holding your vape.
Girl: I want to start a no vaping campaign
The truth: I smoked fake carts so now I want to blame vaping to make money for big tobacco
Lmao what a dumbass!!
Yeah nothing wrong with smoking THC.....IF you can get it from a reliable source, but you have no idea what your drug dealer or his supplier is putting in those things, it truly can be dangerous if you’re not smart with it. The good carts are usually clear liquid so if your cart is brown you have an issue.
Bradley Frye just stop talking that’s so false it hurt.... it doesn’t matter what color it is as long as it has that dabby look what matters is if you can watch the dabs move or not if you can see it move it’s boof
Cabbage just saying one of the ways we tell in GA is based on the color. Now if you’re buying something that is “supposed” to have a darker color then do it, but the vast majority of carts that you get from actual dispensaries are clearer in color than the homemade jobs. You can’t tell me different, this is a fact not an opinion.

As a long time cigarette smoker, since 2002, I started vaping to quit cigs, for the 6th time. But this time I felt like I was really able to kick the cigs cause I now have these alternatives. I definitely don't smoke a vape a day. I try to stretch it for about a week. I also try to leave it at home and not bring it everywhere I go. I do have very young co workers. For reference im 32 and some of them are ranges 15-22. All of them vape and they go through so many of them a week. I honestly don't know where someone gets the time to hit theirs every 10 minutes every single day. But then again they made these so cigarette smokers will have an easier time quitting. Thus far has helped me. Next is to kick these pens and then I'll be at 100% health. Staying active still and eat healthy. Until then, I'll enjoy my alternative.
if your e-juice is free of diacetyl and acetyl propionyl and has no vitamin E then is there then any harm at all from vaping ?
I will say no.
I vape genuine juices made here in Aus or Nz through a vaporesso luxe xr and I feel better than ever. Certainly better than when I smoked!
The failure to make the distinction between nicotine pods and thc cartridges is a huge loss for the media during this epidemic.
Ive been smoking or 4 years straight, thc, and absolutely nothing is wrong with me LMFAO. Its not THC, its nicotine; we already knew that. People are so stupid and still smoke nicotine knowing its damaging and blames everything else. Lmfao. If this was true for THC I would be dead right now.

Here is my point of view; first off, nicotine vaping was invented by a pharmacist in 2003 after he experienced the death of his father from smoking. The design was improved and nic vape shops started to open across the country. Smokers found nic vaping was able to allow them to quit when nothing else worked. A cottage community was born and ex-smokers opened up more nic vape shops because they could help smokers and make a living doing it. Smoking rates started to plummet which disrupted the money flow to big tobacco, big healthcare, big pharma, State sin tax income and tobacco control/body parts non-profits (and the billionaires who used them as tax shelters). In 2018 big tobacco saw the writing on the wall and bought into Juul. The fore mentioned organizations enacted prohibitionist laws against flavored nic vaping across the country to protect their interests which proliferated a booming illicit market.
Sweden will soon be a smokefree country because they have a well regulated tobacco harm reduction strategy in place (nic vaping, snus, heat not burn).
If you smoke, please get to a vape shop and get a setup that you like. Slowly drop the nicotine level down if you wish and quit. Our youth are now smokefree (very low regular use of nic vaping at 2.6%) and adult smoking is the lowest ever recorded. Removed from the engineered addictive cigarette Nicotine is NOT a carcinogen and is NOT addictive but is dependence forming (like caffeine). With the advances in modern science we now know nic vaping is 95+% less harmful and much easier to quit.
The outbreak of lung injuries often known as "EVALI" was nothing to do with nicotine vaping
An examination of the evidence shows that EVALI cannot have been caused by nicotine vaping. The characteristics of the lung injury outbreak are consistent with localised supply chain contamination. The contaminant has been identified and is known to be Vitamin E Acetate. This had been used as a thickener or cutting agent in illicit Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) cannabis vape pens. This agent cannot be mixed with nicotine vaping liquids and would serve no useful purpose if it could be. No other cause or causal agent has been identified that would both implicate nicotine liquids and be consistent with the geographical and temporal pattern of the lung injury outbreak.

Precisely! Time to freak out and shut down all forms of vaping ASAP! lmfao such a joke isn't it? Ignorant people need to get the facts - educate themselves and stop believing everything the media barfs out. #facts #vapingsavedmylife
Bobby Shmurda they wanna ban vaping but not cigarettes? Sounds like the government is mad the vape industry didn’t let them hustle them for crazy tax money.
She’s lying she was smoking boof packs off the street
Haha hot dog water
Big Cock 😂😂She wanted to feel cool, pretty much smoking a pack of cigs a day🥴🥴 she was addicted lmao dumbass stop smoking nicotine and go get some gas ⛽️🍃💨
Big Cock yeo😭😭😭
@@rosswhitton8463 She's smackin on cartnites 😂
& you know this how?????
Just thought I’d say my thoughts I’m 20 and have been vaping for 5 years only hit thc carts a few times and went to the hospital to get x rays on reasons not related to breathing or vaping issues but I had ct scans on my chest and all came back as 100% healthy not to say that itll stay that way or that that should be a way for anyone to justify it but in a few cities over from where I live a kid who only did thc carts no nicotine vapes had to be rushed to the er cuz his lungs were crystallized
Tbh it’s because 1. She was going crazy with them, a cart in a day is insane 2. She was vaping normal thc, but the safe vapes are the delta 8 cbd thc . It’s not even proper weed it’s hemp.
really struggling to quit !!!!!! I wil do my best
fake thc carts
She be smoking those 15-20$ carts 🤦🏽♂️
Jesus Ausencio what are they
Jesus Ausencio how can someone think that price is right
Huh?
Playa Prize
You get what you pay for
the mom said candy rappers amd mascara wands. sounds like fake dab pen carts to me 👀
She wasn't being honest with anyone about her illegal, black-market drug use. Vitamin E Acetate as a cutter for the THC or K-2...
there’s a difference between nic and carts and where you buy them because people can also add chemicals into them which makes it deadly
The fact that they have pink packages pisses dear old mom off. The fact that as a parent you had no idea what your daughter was doing, pisses me off.
It's the only way she can justify her poor parenting skills

Dont get nicotine vape in this, just admit it was cheap weed carts.
When this came on the news a couple of years ago everyone in the smoke shack at my job were advising me to put down the vape and get help, some even telling me to pick the cigs back up. All while power smoking 5 cigs. I just laughed at them. Now it’s been 2 years and I barely even touch my vape. I might toot it a few times when I have a drink but I don’t even take it out of the house much, but still enjoy it. My coworkers are still power smoking the cigs.
Sad but true....
im in year 7 at the moment. everyone in my grade is 12 or 13. it is so sad because almost all the year 7 are already addicted to vaping. i have not vaped yet myself, but my friends are pressuring me into vaping. it is a lot harder being 13 now days than you think.
If they are pressuring you after you have clearly said no or expressed disinterest in it, then these people are not your friends and will most likely ditch you the second you won’t or can’t do what they want. They could also be the type to get in trouble and then take you down with them or frame you for what they did. They sound like fake friends, and unfortunately I have a lot of experience with fake friends because of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and problems at home.
@@christinac1681 thank you so much ❤️❤️
Just legalize marijuana... that’s why teens & young adults buy the carts
Or not smoke at all? It’s sad seeing 13 year olds unable to go more than a few hours without smoking weed...
Lithium Princess you must not smoke because that’s absolutely not how marijuana consumption works at all. And there’s no “few hour withdrawal” 🙄 if there was doctors wouldn’t prescribe it. Smh.
Dee Fame it is legal in my state
It’s just bc they are so easy to hid kids like it
Lithium Princess Yh but smokin weed is way more better than smokin them fake ass carts, and allat nictotine where weed, is not as deadly and u can just smoke without worrying about being addicted or having bad lungs and shi
8 years of vaping not one problem.... Tell the truth ..know what you are putting in your body
she puttin dem synthetic THC carts in her bod n cryin helppp
Roger Anderson vaping 10 years vaping no problem.
Vaping 2 years 24 mg of nicotine not a problem even jump rope 35 minutes a day something i could've done with cigarettes
3 mg nicotine is safe, can't vouch for much else
Roger Anderson same 7 years for me! No issues. I don’t use THC pods though so that is the difference between us and them
Nicotine Vapes made me feel sick. Thc wasn't much better. I realized I couldn't go on like this all day.
You should only be thankful for that. People who get hooked on nicotine usually has a 30 to 40 year long addiction to it.
"I'm an idiot and thus you shouldn't be able to vape either". One time a guy fell off a ladder somewhere but we still are allowed to use ladders.
People need to clear up what they are VAPING. Vaping saved my LIFE!
I heard they are putting vitamin e to thin out the thc cartridges so people are getting too much vitamin e. The majority of these problems are from THC cartridges and if they do both nicotine and thc they aren't narrowing it down. Cigarettes versus vaping. I choose nicotine.
Teenagers lungs are still developing. So let them develop.
Michelle Fitch 🤡
Same here.
Likewise. Had a lot of breathing issues when I smoked a pack a day. Been vaping 4 years and no problems since. Not saying it’s healthy but I know I feel (and smell) sooooo much better than I did when I smoked cigarettes
How did a 15 year old get the money for THAT many juul pods a day.
Good question 🤔
On the corner
Rich parents
She sucked her plug off what else
It wasnt the Juul pods that caused it. She was smoking THC carts that are being cut with vitamin E.
After smoking for 15 years vaping has really helped me a lot. Was a pack a day and now since I picked up vaping a pack of cigarettes has lasted me two weeks. Completely stopped smoking now and one BC5000 will last me a little over two weeks. Also, I guess her campaign didn’t work, because vaping is still very popular today. Just like cigarettes, vaping rakes in too much money to illegalize it.
Ngl lie, I did try vaping back in 2017 but yeah it tasted good but I never felt a addiction, I kinda did it more bc my friends it, but once the supply stopped I stopped never felt the urge. Can someone who struggles or struggled with a nicotine addiction tell me how it is?
You know damn well you didn’t say “I’m 22” at the smoke shop and they were like “okay” and gives you Juul pods😂😂🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Exactly. They require ID and the only place she could get carts is on the streets.
Haha this story is a bunch of bullshit.
idk I used to go to the smoke shop by my house when i was 16 and they never ID'd me, i was a regular to them some smoke shops only care about money
i'm 17, look like i'm 14, and don't get carded
You ain't a bad bitch 😂😂😂 nor do you know what this girl said!!! Were you with her when she said what she said??? If not stfu
Hear that? Said she added thc....cut with vitamin e
Tch does nothing to harm atleast weed or many because it was oil or whatever but yeah they should just ban something that's stops people from smoking cigarettes
What is the purpose of the vitamin E?
@@roxycodone7853 Vitamin E Acetate is used as a liquid medium.
In a nutshell, it's used to further liquefy and dilute the oil in order to reduce viscosity, and allow the oil to get to the coil (heating element) within the vape cartridge.
Without it, or something that works like it, the THC oil would be far too thick.
@@necropick Thx for the info.
@@randyballweg6079 Yea.. not what happened.
What’s with American vape juice? In uk it’s highly regulated. Rarely seen any accidents here
It's like a big flex saying that I don't vape or smoke honestly I love being the one who doesn't do any of it.
There is no oil in vape juice. Also, she was vaping "illegal" cannabis "OIL", that is the reason she got sick.
Mfers have been vaping for years and no issues. These people get a hold of a bad cart and blame it on juul 😩
Literally tho vapes we’re out before and people were fine until now. Guess the Nic wasn’t good enough so they wanted to see what dying was like
vaping has been around nearly 2 decades now and now suddenly dab carts get popular and we start seeing illness's and they are trying to blame it on nicotine vapes
I
All part of big tobaccos plan
FragileSmoke nah juul is crap though, because they accidentally sent out bad pods that were infected in some way. Besides that though it’s fine
Those parents are blaming the companies but do not acknowledge that their kid was smoking every 15 minutes and they never knew! Wouldn’t they smell it? Wouldn’t they wonder where she disappears to? So strange.
Omg not ten deaths in the entire world!!! Wow!!! Let’s do something about this
Mane this story sound bogus “I didn’t wanna tell my parents I was vaping” her mom said “it look like gum rappers it looked like cute little mascara wounds” baby sounds like to me she was smoking fake carts smh 🤦🏽♀️ you brought it on yourself girl
Jakayla Andrea literally
Smoking real ones are worse fr go check out research come on its not that hard
@@randomperson-de1rs ahahahahahaha
@@randomperson-de1rs fake weed pens are laced with unknown chemicals although yeah weed pens aren’t healthy I doubt smoking fake weed pens laced with chemicals that shouldn’t be there are better than a weed pen that’s authentic.
She was buying thc carts she’s lying to everyone
@The Exexcutor exactly. thc does not do this, it is prescribed medically a lot and is pretty safe. them fake carts tho are loaded with junk
@@cong1281 facts this why I don’t even fw wax
It’s not hard for kids to get vape or smokes or anything if you know the right people. People are scumbags and don’t care about you
Yep she’s trying to fool everyone and make out that genuine vapes like smok, voopoo ect and e liquid that only has vg, pg and flavourings in them are dangerous and will collapse your lungs which they wont, and the reality is that she used fake black market thc carts which is the reason why she is in hospital on a ventilator
Lol she was buying the shitty cheap carts from the streets 🤣🤣
Come on, who is really shocked that a corporation in America seemingly ignores the risk to children in favor of money
The failure is also on the parents part for not paying attention to the changes in their. As someone who works with kids and teaches health the failure is on both ends.
Damn she’s a heavy smoker if she could finish a cartridge a day
Supreme Nature That’s what I’m saying! I was like even if I’m smoking it hella it still lasts me a good three or four days. Sometimes these people can do it to themselves by taking it too far smh
The news exaggerate
She was smoking a cart a day WTFFFFF 🤣💀 bitch gotta be hitting it every 2 minutes from when she wakes up to when she sleeps fr. Ive tried to kill a cart in one day and my cart was real (its impossible if the cart is actually dank asf) like i hit it 10 times within 1 minute and i was stoned asf, by the end of the day it was half way thru. So you know this bih was smokin some booooof asss carts
STBYRN TV and that’s on facts, my gold coasts get me set after 2 good hits and they’re 100% real she smoking on hot dog water shit
@@t6572 tsshhhh 2 to 3 big hits I be knocked out 🤣🤣
How did she pay for a pack a day at 15? Isn’t that like $100 a week? 🤔
she's a privileged white girl who prob gets an insane amount for a weekly allowance.
also said she started juuling 3 years ago when it came out nearly 2 years ago 👀
pikachu2511 it came out in 2015 are u special?
One Juul pod costs $7, that’s one pack a day. Why do I have to explain this? 😪
Tea Sesh they are 5 a pod...
This is scary, I am from the UK and have been using the throw away vapes. They contain 600 puffs at 2mg nicotine, I have used them to successfully stop a 30 year, 20 per day cigarette habit. My breathing is 100% better at the moment but this has me really concerned. Are these deaths related to vapes in general or just the cannabis ones?
It’s from fake cannabis ones
Fake cannabis ones
“She smoked that vape”
“She drank that food”
Im literally watching this hitting my juul thinking “whys the media so fake”
Doobie_D all fun in games till you end up in a hospital bed wired and hooked up to a breathing machine but all means keep doin u why can’t ppl jus smoke on sum weed mane🤦🏽♂️
Lean Witit dude smoking weed makes your pee skinny
Lean Witit honestly ive been vaping for almost 4 years on and off, its the oil they put in there that builds up on the lungs not vape, vapor is literally water. It’s basically harmless besides chemicals but chemicals are in everything so. It doesn’t matter
Tyler G yes lmao 🤣 i was stoned so i was fucking around with the kid im well aware of what it is and whats going on 💀
Doobie_D vapes are for pussies weed is where it’s at
I want to correct her, “I used shitty fake dab carts” the ONLY thing in good juice that can cause any lung issue is proplyne glycol
This girl is lying she's doing this to start her campaign to get her name out there to get recognized so she can start her career in politics and probably in the White House...not..!!
Exactly bro these old ass boomers don't understand that there's a difference between a $15 cart filled with sewage and an njoy
Proplyne Glycol doesn't cause any lung issue, unless if you have baby lungs like 8th graders going cough cough in the bathrooms.
PG doesn't cause lung problems
Pg doesn’t do shut
Yeah I’m gonna keep vaping been doing it since I was about 14 on and off I’m 20 it helped me quit cigarettes
For anyone wondering what ingredient may cause this its, vitamin E acetate which has been indicated in EVALI, which stands for e-cigarette or vaping product use associated lung injury. This ingredient is found in the marijuana type vapes or THC and uncommon in the nicotine only vapes. This video clearly states she was using the marijuana and nicotine vape.
50 pounds damn I’m finna start romping 2 carts a day
Carlos Uriarte 🤣🤣🤣
Funniest thing ive heard for the past month
I thought the same! 😂🤣
Thanks for making me laugh man I needed that
For real tho.
Wasting abc’s time because she’s been smoking bootleg carts all summer
Would you smoke bath salts to get high..
@@nicaxiv14jd how does that have to do with anything
She was smoking that raw garden under $60
This is bullshit and causes crap for regular vapes.
@@the_homie_me you only getting real carts at $60? man must be tough
Sounds like fake carts 😂 if it’s such a problem why did they legalize it how many deaths have been recorded from smoking Tabaco
It's been a month since i quit vaping and fyi I'm an adult (mid 30s) best decision I have ever made BUT now I'm having a hard time quitting smoking cigarettes because of this
